I think that episode forums is a good platform, it’s good and unproblematic. What’s your opinion?
Added an episode tag and an opinions tag
It’s pretty problematic tbh, if you state an opinion that the leads don’t like, your post becomes hidden. Ugh!
Interesting, most people here don’t like the episode forums that much! Personally I think there are some issues, especially with how the staff just silence criticism and it’s not clear what happens when you flag something or fill a ticket with concerns about things.
It’s a good platform for everyone who doesn’t have any controversial opinions or who always agrees with episode
But most of the time you get flagged for saying your opinion there for being “off topic” and it’s really annoying me sometimes
My experience was different, I became friends with alot of people instantly and everyone was nice!
There are some really nice people over there, but as Hanna said, if you are only a bit controversial and voice your opinions too much in the opinion of the staff you get silenced… It can be really annoying
I made some nice friends there too, but I also got flagged for being off topic quite often just for sharing my opinion
One of my polls also got deleted because of a made up rule
It’s far from being unproblematic
I didn’t hide in my PMs there for no reason. Everybody was on tenterhooks all the time, it was so uncomfortable. We couldn’t state our opinions without the posts being flagged and the thread unlisted.
I made a lot of friends there but they all moved here so honestly I don’t credit that forum for having friends because we’re still friends now even though I got my account deleted.
Yeah another thing, they make up rules that you seriously can’t find anywhere, that probably bothers me the most.
An example…
That part really does annoy me.
Also the whole fact that they invade our privacy isn’t great…
This is also one of the reasons why I created so many poll related events here… To show them how much better it could be if you could post your own polls under the weekly poll…
It’s a small thing called interaction and they don’t seem to like it over there
Was it a specific person who made you guys feel that way?
Lol I really don’t want to overwhelm you with negativity about the episode forums @euphoriaa but it’s kinda a toxic place in my opinion, I used to love it but slowly I started seeing how there is no place for real discussions and stuff like that
Nick just came into one of my group PM’s once
WTH.
We don’t name names over here because that’s wrong.
But one particular mod made it obvious that they can invade our PMs…
Nick mainly, the mod… He’s pretty annoying and if you ask him real questions he just tries to talk around everything and doesn’t answer your true questions.
